The staff were excellent, with a particular shout out to the chef whose cooking was outstanding. The rooms were clean and spacious, the pool was great and the location was perfect for the safari. Would highly recommend.

Positive: Beautiful setting, surrounded by nature and lovely atmosphere. We say monkeys playing around at the hotel as well as lots of different birds. Rooms were comfortable and the staff very helpful to make our stay great with our baby, the hotel purchased a cot as we’d requested one but they didn’t yet have one. Location is great for access to Bundala National Park, Yala is about a 45 minute drive. The pool area was great and the pool heated to a very comfortable temperature. Really tasty food, good portion size and a plentiful breakfast!
Negative: Staff were very happy to help when asked but we would have appreciated a quick daily freshen up of the room (water refilled, bins emptied etc.) without needing to request it.
Summary: Beautiful setting, surrounded by nature and lovely atmosphere.

Positive: A fantastic retreat, surrounded by nature. The rooms/ dining area are of an exceptional standard and spotlessly clean. The staff were really helpful and took care of our needs. They organised two private safari tours which were both unforgettable experiences. The food was delicious, a big thank you to Fazal the Chef who looked after us, and cooked some amazing food. We will return. Thank you Malala Retreat.
Negative: The drinks menu was somewhat limited. I would suggest juices, coconut, mocktails..
